Etymology
Coker as a person who sells or smokes tobacco is probably a slang form made in the usual English way by adding -er to a product name, similar to smoker for someone who smokes. A helpful way to remember it is that coker means 'one who sells or uses tobacco', which explains its modern use in that sense.
